Judge Aileen Cannon has reportedly denied Donald Trump advisor Stephen Miller's request to argue against a gag order being considered in the former president's criminal Espionage Act case. Trump is currently facing allegations in federal court in Florida that he unlawfully stored and refused to return certain classified documents from his time as the president. Recently, Special Counsel Jack Smith, the prosecutor in that case and another federal case in Washington, D.C., has been fighting for a gag order stemming from Trump's false claims about the FBI raiding his Mar-a-Lago golf resort. The ink had only just dried on Cannon's rejection of a bid by Republican state attorneys general to intervene against Smith's request for a gag order on Trump in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case when Miller gave it a shot.

"JUST IN: Judge Aileen Cannon won't allow Stephen Miller's [America First Legal] to fill as friend of court opposing Trump gag order requested by special counsel," Gerstein wrote on Sunday. He also included a screenshot of Cannon's docket, which showed the motion by Miller was denied. In response, @mehmaybenot wrote, "She has to do something right every once in a while to prevent being booted off the case." @dcpoll also chimed in: "Stephen Miller is a bridge too far for Trump-loving Aileen Cannon."Cannon, who was appointed to the bench by Trump, has been accused of favoring the former president by delaying the trial for months.
